This is entirely orthogonal to Qt 5.

qt4_use_modules is new, but provides no benefit over tll(). We shouldn't 
encourage adoption of it for people who are already depending on 2.8.11.

qt4_automoc is suboptimal, not present in the Qt 5 macros, and made obsolete 
by the CMAKE_AUTOMOC feature. With two similar features, one of them should 
be marked obsolete.

Thanks,

Steve.
